Gold shop manager dead

A bullion shop manager Mohan, who was injured seriously in the attack by two brigands about 20 days ago in Neredmet died in the hospital. Two thieves entered his shop as customers, downed the shutter from inside and forced him to drink acid and decamped with 15 tolas of gold ornaments and net cash in Neredmet, near ECIL. The victim tried to
resist but the thieves hit him in the head with a hammer and fled from the scene with the gold and cash. Locals on hearing the cries of Mohan
went to his rescue and admitted him to a hospital. A complaint was lodged and the police said special squads were searching for the culprits but so far no action has been taken, said the victim’s
family.
